after update restoring to system timeout value doesn't work

[Simplenuity]

system:

• Android 10
• Keep Screen On: at least versions 1.12.0 and 1.11.0

before update:

• in Keep Screen On both Options to restore timeout (low battery, screen off) activated
• icon shows up on status bar if Keep Screen On gets activated

after update:

• restoring to system timeout value doesn't work anymore
• icon doesn't show up on status bar

work around: toggle both Options and app behaves as expected again

NB:

• a reboot is not solving the issue
• have not systematically tested whether status of Keep Screen On, i.e. being active or not, at time of update is making a difference

Does reinstalling the app fix the issue?

Does reinstalling the app fix the issue?

After re-installation both Options to restore timeout (low battery, screen off) need to be re-activated. After that the app works as expected.

Had now the situation that without any update process and without any other obvious reason the tile appeared grayed out and no activation was possible. After toggling both Options once again, it worked as expected. I guess without being able to reproduce, it will be hard to address...

I had also encountered the issue with the tile being stuck after I updated the app on my own device. I did not however pay any special attention to it and proceeded with reinstalling the app with the assumption that it is just a problem on my end. It might be somehow related to the build workflow as there was an issue with reproducible builds on f-droid but I have no idea what could have caused it.

Concerning the issue with the tiles being greyed out, I have not encountered it on my side.

Closing as I was not able to reproduce 🤷
